    • The present invention describes a single-protein production (SPP) system in living E. coli cells that exploits the unique properties of an mRNA interferase, for example, MazF, a bacterial toxin that is a single stranded RNA- and ACA-specific endoribonuclease, which efficiently and selectively degrades all cellular mRNAs in vivo, resulting in a precipitous drop in total protein synthesis. Concomitant expression of MazF and a target gene engineered to encode an ACA-less mRNA results in sustained and high-level (up to 90%) target expression in the virtual absence of background cellular protein synthesis. Remarkably, target synthesis continues for at least 4 days, indicating that cells retain transcriptional and translational competence despite their growth arrest. SPP technology works well for yeast and human proteins, even a bacterial integral membrane protein. This novel system enables unparalleled signal to noise ratios that should dramatically simplify structural and functional studies of previously intractable but biologically important proteins. The present invention also provides an optimized condensed single protein production system.
    • 本发明描述了利用mRNA干扰酶的独特性质的活的大肠杆菌细胞中的单蛋白质生产(SPP)系统,例如MazF,单链RNA-和ACA特异性内切核糖核酸酶的细菌毒素, 其有效和选择性地降解体内所有细胞mRNA,导致总蛋白质合成的急剧下降。 MazF和旨在编码无ACA mRNA的靶基因的伴随表达导致在虚拟无背景细胞蛋白质合成中的持续和高水平(高达90%)的靶表达。 值得注意的是,目标合成持续至少4天,表明细胞保留转录和翻译能力,尽管其生长停滞。 SPP技术适用于酵母和人类蛋白质,甚至细菌整合膜蛋白。 这种新颖的系统能够实现无与伦比的信噪比,这将显着简化以前难以处理但生物重要的蛋白质的结构和功能研究。 本发明还提供优化的冷凝单蛋白生产系统。

    • Ribonucleases, antibiotics, bacterial toxins and viruses inhibit protein synthesis, which results in apoptosis in mammalian cells. How the BCL-2 family of proteins regulates apoptosis in response to shutoff of protein synthesis is not known. According to the present invention, an Escherichia coli toxin MazF inhibited protein synthesis by cleavage of cellular mRNA, and induced apoptosis in mammalian cells. MazF-induced apoptosis required proapoptotic BAK and its upstream regulator, the proapoptotic BH3-only protein NBK/BIK, but not BIM, PUMA or NOXA. Furthermore, NBK/BIK- or BAK-deficient cells were resistant to cell death induced by pharmacologic inhibition of translation and by virus-mediated shutoff of protein synthesis. Thus, the BH3-only protein NBK/BIK is the apical regulator of a BAK-dependent apoptotic pathway in response to shutoff of protein synthesis. Although NBK/BIK is dispensable for development, it is the BH3-only protein targeted for inactivation by viruses, suggesting that it plays a role in pathogen/toxin response through apoptosis activation.
    • 核糖核酸酶,抗生素,细菌毒素和病毒抑制蛋白质合成,导致哺乳动物细胞凋亡。 BCL-2家族蛋白质如何调节蛋白质合成关闭反应的凋亡是未知的。 根据本发明,大肠杆菌毒素MazF通过切割细胞mRNA抑制蛋白质合成,并诱导哺乳动物细胞的细胞凋亡。 MazF诱导的细胞凋亡需要促凋亡BAK及其上游调节因子,即促凋亡BH3蛋白NBK / BIK,而不是BIM,PUMA或NOXA。 此外,NBK / BIK-或BAK缺陷细胞对由翻译的药理学抑制和蛋白质合成的病毒介导的切断引起的细胞死亡具有抗性。 因此,仅BH3蛋白NBK / BIK是响应于蛋白质合成关闭的BAK依赖性凋亡途径的顶端调节剂。 虽然NBK / BIK是不可开发的,但是仅针对通过病毒灭活的BH3蛋白,这表明它通过凋亡激活在病原体/毒素反应中起作用。

    • A method is disclosed for producing a biochemically active polypeptide from a biochemically inactive polypeptide. The polypeptide is normally but need not be expressed in a precursor form containing a pro-sequence. The inactive polypeptide is reacted with a tailor-made activating peptide. The activating peptide can be synthetic or made by recombinant DNA procedure. The activating peptide is a peptide which contains one or more functional domains which are necessary for folding the inactive polypeptide into a biochemically active conformation. The activating peptide may but need not contain a sequence of amino acids which is identical to the sequence of the natural occurring pro-sequence of the polypeptide. Also, a method is disclosed which permits to identify the one or more functional domains in the pro-sequence of a polypeptide which contribute(s) to the folding of the inactive polypeptide into a biochemically active conformation. The invention relates also to a tailor-made activating peptide (synthetic or by recombinant DNA) and to the biochemically active polypeptide. The protein activation method and the biochemically active proteins are of major utility in their broad applications.
